Standard polynomials are characterized by their degree and exponent
2011
Abstract By the Giambruno–Zaicev theorem (Giambruno and Zaicev, 1999) [5] , the exponent exp ( A ) of a p.i. algebra A exists, and is always an integer. In Berele and Regev (2001) [2] it was shown that the exponent exp ( St n ) of the standard polynomial St n of degree n is not smaller than the exponent of any polynomial of degree n. Here it is proved that exp ( St n ) is strictly larger than the exponent of any other polynomial of degree n which is not a multiple of St n .
Polynomial identities on superalgebras: Classifying linear growth
2006
Abstract We classify, up to PI-equivalence, the superalgebras over a field of characteristic zero whose sequence of codimensions is linearly bounded. As a consequence we determine the linear functions describing the graded codimensions of a superalgebra.
Star-polynomial identities: computing the exponential growth of the codimensions
2017
Abstract Can one compute the exponential rate of growth of the ⁎-codimensions of a PI-algebra with involution ⁎ over a field of characteristic zero? It was shown in [2] that any such algebra A has the same ⁎-identities as the Grassmann envelope of a finite dimensional superalgebra with superinvolution B. Here, by exploiting this result we are able to provide an exact estimate of the exponential rate of growth e x p ⁎ ( A ) of any PI-algebra A with involution. It turns out that e x p ⁎ ( A ) is an integer and, in case the base field is algebraically closed, it coincides with the dimension of an admissible subalgebra of maximal dimension of B.
Polynomial codimension growth of algebras with involutions and superinvolutions
2017
Abstract Let A be an associative algebra over a field F of characteristic zero endowed with a graded involution or a superinvolution ⁎ and let c n ⁎ ( A ) be its sequence of ⁎-codimensions. In [4] , [12] it was proved that if A is finite dimensional such sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if A generates a variety not containing a finite number of ⁎-algebras: the group algebra of Z 2 and a 4-dimensional subalgebra of the 4 × 4 upper triangular matrices with suitable graded involutions or superinvolutions. In this paper we focus our attention on such algebras since they are the only finite dimensional ⁎-algebras, up to T 2 ⁎ -equivalence, generating varieties of almost polynomial gr…
Non-self-adjoint resolutions of the identity and associated operators
2013
Closed operators in Hilbert space defined by a non-self-adjoint resolution of the identity $$\{X(\lambda )\}_{\lambda \in {\mathbb R}}$$ , whose adjoints constitute also a resolution of the identity, are studied. In particular, it is shown that a closed operator $$B$$ has a spectral representation analogous to the familiar one for self-adjoint operators if and only if $$B=\textit{TAT}^{-1}$$ where $$A$$ is self-adjoint and $$T$$ is a bounded inverse.
Algebras with involution with linear codimension growth
2006
AbstractWe study the ∗-varieties of associative algebras with involution over a field of characteristic zero which are generated by a finite-dimensional algebra. In this setting we give a list of algebras classifying all such ∗-varieties whose sequence of ∗-codimensions is linearly bounded. Moreover, we exhibit a finite list of algebras to be excluded from the ∗-varieties with such property. As a consequence, we find all possible linearly bounded ∗-codimension sequences.
Finite-dimensional non-associative algebras and codimension growth
2011
AbstractLet A be a (non-necessarily associative) finite-dimensional algebra over a field of characteristic zero. A quantitative estimate of the polynomial identities satisfied by A is achieved through the study of the asymptotics of the sequence of codimensions of A. It is well known that for such an algebra this sequence is exponentially bounded.Here we capture the exponential rate of growth of the sequence of codimensions for several classes of algebras including simple algebras with a special non-degenerate form, finite-dimensional Jordan or alternative algebras and many more. In all cases such rate of growth is integer and is explicitly related to the dimension of a subalgebra of A. One…
Matrix algebras of polynomial codimension growth
2007
We study associative algebras with unity of polynomial codimension growth. For any fixed degree $k$ we construct associative algebras whose codimension sequence has the largest and the smallest possible polynomial growth of degree $k$. We also explicitly describe the identities and the exponential generating functions of these algebras.
Identities of *-superalgebras and almost polynomial growth
2015
We study the growth of the codimensions of a *-superalgebra over a field of characteristic zero. We classify the ideals of identities of finite dimensional algebras whose corresponding codimensions are of almost polynomial growth. It turns out that these are the ideals of identities of two algebras with distinct involutions and gradings. Along the way, we also classify the finite dimensional simple *-superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
Polynomial growth of the codimensions: a characterization
2009
Let A A be a not necessarily associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero. Here we characterize the T-ideal of identities of A A in case the corresponding sequence of codimensions is polynomially bounded.
